Woodland and Camo-net

Spending a whole day away from work togetherwith my lovely daughter also offered some timefor my hobby while she was asleep.I completed painting my Humvee and also the recoil-less gun and a model of a M60-tank.All three models were cheap plastic toys that Iupgraded or converted.I have made more camo-nets using gauze and Ihave also tried to paint woodland-camouflage.To get the right look I have tested painting rust anddirt/dust. To get this gritty-look I have mainly usedcitadel paints as: Seraphim sepia and Nulin oil andhigh-lighted edges with metalpaint.All antennas are made using thin metalthread that iswrapped around a nail before pointing the straightend "twelve o´clock".I am still searching for my squad with US-soldierspainted in woodland camo that I completed theday before my wedding but they are still missingduring our move to our house. They are probably in a safe place and will be found later!?The main idea with these vehicles are to make asmall platoon with support and soldiers for skirmishin the cold war-era and also meeting a zombie-threat. Tomorrow I publish more pictures with thevehicles together with scenery.
